I usually do not give a reviews on a company because they are willing to address your concern. Bill with Growth Spurts poured a concrete driveway and patio without rebar to reinforce and strengthen the concrete from premature cracking. he promised rebar prior to getting the contract and did not follow thru his words . Now the concrete is only 3 months and has several crack and holes. he will not return to repair his works which was the highest of the 3 bids received for the project. I place good faith on Growth Spurts and decided to give him the bid. I am very disappointed that Bill does not stand by his word.

Response from GROWTH SPURTS LANDSCAPE
We did pour a concrete patio and did multiple other items for this project. I did specify installing rebar to strengthen the concrete and somehow it was left out of the pour we did. We did however install fiber mesh in the concrete which is industry standard in our area. We reimbursed the homeowner for cost of the rebar. The cracking that is occurring in this patio is in the expansion joints where the concrete is supposed to crack.

Bill was great. We got estimates from multiple companies but his experience and detailed estimate put him above. Price was right, concerns were addressed quickly and expectations surpassed. Thanks Bill!

He started out sixteen years ago. I was one of his first jobs. I got him again. He is so good. I had him sixteen years ago, and got him again. He is fantastic. That time of the year, he is really busy. He goes on his landscape job. People keep adding stuff, because he is so good. Its a bad time of the year, and its not his fault. He transplanted some bushes from my area to the left of my garage way, to the front of my house. They weren't the bulb, and one died. So out of five did good. Everything he supplied are doing just fine. I will have to get him back after a freeze, to make sure everything is just fine.

Chris was in contact with me to let me know his crew was a bit behind schedule. I have a lot of large mature oak trees and they drop a lot of leaves and twigs. The crew of four came out and cleaned the garden beds out with backpack blowers and good old fashion rakes. I was impressed with the level of detail they used to get all the deep down leaves. The best part of the entire process was the the removal of the leaves. Most companies will remove leaves only to put then in numerous bags and stack them on the curb for the city to pick up. GrowthSpurts vacuums them right up into a large truck and hauls them away. I had so many leaves they had to come back a second day to finish up. Initially I thought the price was high but when I saw the thoroughness of their work and just how much debris they handled and removed, I realized it was worth every penny!

Bill and his guys worked over several days installing a fieldstone wall around two flowerbeds and a mailbox. Bill without hesitation sent his guys back out several times to modify things that I wanted done differently every step of the way until my vision was finally a reality. Any problems I identified aren't even worth mentioning because Bill and his team fixed all issues. I would without hesitation use them again in the future - and plan to do so!

The landscaper was very knowledgeable & made some recommendations about where to plant the crape myrtles so the root system wouldn't interfere with the foundation of my house.
Description of Work: The owner of Growth Spurts gave me an estimate on having overgrown privet hedge removed from the front of my house & crape myrtles & hydrangea bushes installed.

Although we had several weather delays and some unforeseen circumstances to arise Bill and his crew worked tirelessly to complete our pool by our initial date... Only 1 week past! :-) He or Chris were in constant contact with us and made sure to keep us in loop. (Even sent us photos of the progress while we were on vacation!) Bill has always been available to answer any questions... Even after the project and payment were complete he was more than happy to come over and help out with the Polaris. I would not hesitate to recommend Bill to any of my friends or family and would feel more than confidant that they would be equally as pleased with his customer service, professionalism and services as we were!

When I called to make an appointment for a quote, I was told that they worked only Mon to Fri, 8 to 5pm, so I would need to be home during the work day to get a quote. I agreed to come home from work during the day. Bill stopped by, as planned, a few days later. He was early, very friendly, professional, knowledgeable and had excellent design ideas. He said I would receive a quote and design in a few days. 7 business days later, when I hadn't received a quote, I called him. I told Bill I was wondering if he knew when the quote would be ready because I had 2 other quotes and didn't know if I should wait for his. He said he would have it out that day. I thanked him and said I was looking forward to it. No quote, email or call received yet. Angie's list asked me to review Growth Spurts Landscape no later than today, so I am completing the review as it currently stands.
Description of Work: Met with me at house to quote 3 projects.

Response from GROWTH SPURTS LANDSCAPE
This is very disappointing. I evidently let this one get away from us. My only explanation would be that there are certain times of the year we get so busy we can't get everything done and this particular project slipped through the cracks. My intent is to always get back with customers or potential customers. This is completely my fault. I intend on contacting this customer to apologize and hopefully rectify this situation. I wish we had the capability to hire a seasonal sales force when things get so crazy in the spring to help out but unfortunately the limited number of people with the knowledge it takes to be able to service all the people is few and far between. Completely my bad but hopefully I can salvage some sort of relationship for the future.

Installation was on schedule. He came out multiple times to adjust the lighting, as it's difficult to point lights exactly in the right direction during the day. He came out after dark to fine tune the lighting. He also came out several times to help us with the two controls when we re-set them (or tried) for daylight savings time. Today is Feb 25 and he just came to the house once more to help us with the controls, so followup service is commendable.
Description of Work: Installed 40-50 outside lights to highlight trees and features in the front, back & side yard.

They came out for the estimate and he said that he would come back a few days later to give me and estimate and he never came back and I didn't speak with them again. He was professional when he came out to my home. I guess my job was too small for him.

Thank you for the opportunity to respond. I had originally met with (member name removed) and we had talked about me coming back with a transit to shoot the grades on the property to make sure we could solve his issues in the best way possible. He said it was not a big rush to get out there as there had been a lot of rain. I did get out to his house and submitted an estimate for his project. (Member name removed) declined our proposal at this time. It is always our hope to get back to customers in a timely fashion. In this case, it rained several days each week in between the time I had originally met with (Member name removed) and the times I had available to come out and shoot the grades. Unfortunately if (member name removed) would have contacted me I would have been more than glad to let him know where we were at on the estimate. I take each project that comes through our office very seriously, and each customer is very important. There is no job too big or small in our eyes and we treat everyone with respect as it relates to their projects. I should have given (Member name removed)a call to let him know due to the rain we were delayed, but he did not give me the idea he was in such a hurry and with the rain we were having I thought he would have realized this. Again he did receive a proposal and has chosen to hold off on our quote at this time. Thanks for the opportunity to respond to this very unfavorable grade. Sincerely Bill Baltes Owner at Growth Spurts Landscape/Irrigation/Pool.

Growth Spurts completed the job on schedule and it turned out even better than I anticipated. The staff was professional and friendly and Bill's experience and creativity added the extra touch I was looking for. I intend to hire Growth Spurts again this spring to do some additional landscaping and patio work. The service they provide is exceptional!
Description of Work: I hired Growth Spurts to landscape and put up lighting along the front of my house and along the walkway around the pool.
